One of the really early Asterix stories (from 1964), where Asterix and Obelisk head off to Rome to rescue Cacofonix the bard, who has been captured by the Romans stationed around the village, and taken in chains to Rome to be presented to Caesar/fed to the Circus.

I've also only just discovered that this is the first book in the series in which Obelisk says "These Romans are crazy!"

"I think I must have been the first person to review this film in Canada. I was the film editor of the campus newspaper in 1978, and the film distributor thought it would connect with students. I still have the original press kit somewhere. I hadn’t been this immersed in a crazy dream since I saw Un chien andalou, and still firmly believe that in heaven, everything is fine."

"I went through a phase toward the end of the summer this year when I was only listening to LCD. I was listening to the last album This Is Happening, and just thinking about the artistry of that album, about how they do these intros—it’s almost like white-water rafting. It’s like you see the crazy part coming, and then it calms down, and you have this perfect path forward"

I love this game for so many reasons:

The storyline is pretty engaging.
How they talk to each other in the scenes is crazy--hilarious at times.
Kirzu's attitude and fighting skills.
The fun little side stories.
The strange games included from darts and mah-jong to chatting up girls in the cabaret and online video chat.

"Robert Ashley is famous for having made these so-called operas, a lot of them were for TV. He works with the voice in these really great ways. I love this record because you don't know exactly what's going on: there's a lot of mystery. You have to piece together what's going on within the minutiae of the musical environment. Or you don't and you just listen and enjoy it. The sounds are very beautiful. Ther's a distant organ in the background just playing this one chord and you can also hear a bass. You can hear this woman whispering in French but you can barely hear her. Then this male singer appears but there's some crazy modulation on his voice. So all these crazy elements combine to create this crazy environment that you want to listen to for maybe ten minutes, because it's not like a song but it's got the elements of a song: you've got a bassline, you've got these instruments playing harmonies and you have voices. But you can't tell what's going on. It has an atmosphere. The album is called Automatic Writing but the track I'm talking about here, specifically, is called 'Automatic Writing'. It's important for me because it reinforced this idea that you could put beauty into music without necessarily using sweet melodies or whatever. I do have that in my music, but I also like the drama that can come from just… voices."
